Whether you’re repairing the existing utilities or installing new ones, trenchless technology is a viable solution for you. The first half of this two-hour program examines Richmond Virginia's policies for trenchless and boring operations that were developed to mitigate damage to neighboring underground utilities. The second half of this program takes a close-up look at examples of trenchless case studies using cured in place pipe.

Sustainable Utility Construction: Methods and Techniques
Learn how your community can utilize new concepts, such as duct banks and trenchless technology, to showcase a project's sustainability in all three phases of the "triple bottom-line": economic viability, social responsibility, and environmental responsibility

Keyhole Technology
Small-hole (keyhole) technology in the utility maintenance industry is the equivalent of microsurgery in the healthcare industry. Smaller-sized keyholes are beneficial because they minimize the disruption of traffic, minimize the requirements for the disposal of spoils, increase worker and pedestrian safety, and result in a smaller and safer work site. Experts will review the keyhole coring and restoration process and discuss its ability to compliment other trenchless processes by further reducing pavement excavation.
